    HiFiMan Susvara

    Nobody even has to guess. It's 1000% definitely dual 3.5mm.

    HiFiMan Susvara

    If the Susvara gets to listening volume, which can be done with a decently powerful dongle DAC, it's going to chokeslam every one of those headphones. They're picky, sure, but they don't lose 95% of their abilities all of the sudden and that's what it would take for the MDR-MV1 and HD490s to...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    I'm what metric did any of those outperform the Susvara? I got the HD490s for review right before they came out, forged my opinions and settled on them having awful sloppy bass that bleeds, the standard Sennheiser Veil® so clarity sucked, and detail was pretty much $200 headphone range. Laughed...

    Douk Audio U2 Pro DDC - Poorman DDC for an affordable & clean digital signal

    Spec for I2S maxed out at 18 inches and that includes the internal wiring in the DAC and DDC. Any longer and you are missing the massive benefits of I2S.

    HiFiMan Susvara

    Oh absolutely. Reading explanations that you and M0N wrote up over time really helped me a lot and now that I'm pathetically deep into this BS, I feel like 1% of people that own them have even heard what the Susvara is capable of and don't even get me started on the HE6 line. People out here...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    I simply can't understand how people that pretend to have an understanding of audio gear can't comprehend decibels. 3db more sensitivity is massive. Math alone says the new Susvara are 33% easier to drive. Reversing that, the old Susvara are 50% more difficult to drive than the new ones...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    I wouldn't be surprised that if Hifiman had the forethought to sell the Susvara Unveiled at $3000 USD, that they would sell quite literally 100x more headphones and anytime anyone talked about any TOTL headphone, the conversation would go something like "Why get X headphone when Susvara Unveiled...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    I think there's a mass misunderstanding of how massive of an impact adding rigidity to the cups and driver can be and those new cups scream rock solid and with the driver firmly attached at the back, that looks like it could be braced against the cups a lot better. Of all the mods I've done on...

    Douk Audio U2 Pro DDC - Poorman DDC for an affordable & clean digital signal

    I don't understand why it's so expensive, but I saw this pop up and the other stuff that Vezzoso makes is pretty high quality and I've heard some people say some very good things about their DACs https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=684485125510

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    Yeah if I ever win a billion dollars I'm going to do all the measurements that actually matter with all the high end gear and figure all this stupid stuff out once and for all. Why nobody measures the important metrics, I'll never know. It sure would be nice to be able to just look at a spec...

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    I use a pair of Parasound A21+ to drive the HE6 and Susvara. They're rated at 1100wpc and measure in the real world at about 2000wpc. Yes, they like powerful amps but there's a fact in the way and that is that you can not feed them all of that power. It's not an opinion. I would put the pair of...

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    The power has zero to to l do with it. Zero. Nothing. If you put 1mw @ 60ohm into the Susvara, it will play at 83db. I've driven them with 1500wpc and the HE6 with worse results than a $250 headphone amp. High power amps do hold together better, but you can't put even a 5 watts into them and...

    Douk Audio U2 Pro DDC - Poorman DDC for an affordable & clean digital signal

    @sajunky is that one with the battery a constant charge isolated battery? like does it charge while being used and still maintain full isolation without a separate power input?

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    If it's in warranty, the supercharger is covered but I had a Funk die on me out of warranty and they sent me a replacement board for free and I just slapped it in and it was fixed. I think they'd much rather just replace the supercharger than refund the amp and either way they're still not...

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    I'd talk to Burson. They're really really helpful. I've had a couple issues with some of their stuff in the past and they just handled it no questions asked.

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    @awesomenatorrad it's probably the power supply. Were you using the regular non supercharger power supply? I've never heard of a supercharger dying, but I've heard of dozens of the standard power supplies giving out.

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    make sure all the silent power modules are PERFECTLY straight up and down when putting the lid on and put it PERFECTLY straight down and they should squeeze in place with the little foam on the underside of the top cover. had it happen and about crap my pants but everything was fine.

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    Yeah, sounds like a Supercharger 3A. I don't know that is necessarily the problem, but I do think it's relevant to the issue.

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    So there's a sensor inside the amp that tells it not to turn on if the lid is off and people have had issues (me included the first time I swapped opamps) with the amp not wanting to turn on afterwards after removing the lid and putting it back on. I'd make sure the screws are nice and tight and...

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    This sounds like it might be the problem, but the way it's happening sounds like the failsafe for the top cover not being engaged. Have you opened the unit up and changed opamps?

    iFi Audio Asks... What (Product) Should We Make Next?

    A dedicated DDC/streamer that does upsampling internally like an Mscaler, but price it reasonably. Give it an app to change filters. The market could really use a hardware upsampler and it really shouldn't have to cost what the Mscaler costs to achieve the exact same results.

    Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR

    Yeah the differences were fairly minor, BUT there's quite a bit more power handling capabilities with the 2023. I really didn't notice it on anything but the HE6 line (4, 6, and se v2) but it is definitely a pretty decent leap with those and another thing I noticed that isn't really a big deal...
